Apart from possessing Messi on the right wing, Barcelona's attack has got some really good players who are football superstars in their own rights. The presence of Luis Suarez is always enough to keep opposition defenders on their toes, because one never gets to know when 'El Pistolero' can strike. He scored a hat-trick against an unsuspecting Real Madrid in the absence of injured Lionel Messi, and announced that he is still the striker one could bank upon.

Barcelona purchased Ousmane Dembele last season from Borussia Dortmund, and the 21-year old has shown flashes of his brilliance. He can drag in defenders and outfox them easily to score screamers from distance. Brazilian winger Malcom was snatched from under the nose of AS Roma in the summer transfer window, and he shows a lot of promise.

Phillipe Coutinho is the Brazilian prince of Barcelona who can win matches of his own. Munir El-Haddadi is also an exciting prospect, who can chip in vital goals as and when required, deputising for Luis Suarez.
